Mount Everest

Why would you climb Mount Everest
Why would you row the sea
Why would I climb Mount Everest
‘Cause it’s in front of me

Ask me oh ask me, Dear Inquisitor
What is it you don’t see
Why would I climb Mount Everest
Because it’s there for me

Ask me oh ask me, Dear Inquisitor
Why put myself through all the pain
My answer, my answer oh, inquisitor
Will always be the same

It’s not about going from Point A to Point B
Through solitude and all the uncertainty
I’ll confront my demons before they get to me

Why would a caterpillar lock itself in a cocoon
Just so it can fly free
I’ll slip into my row boat now, and soon
See what becomes of me

I watch thе seagulls and terns all head back to thе coast
The one who’s flying the highest can see the most
I wanna know what he knows

It’s not about going from Point A to Point B
Through solitude and all the uncertainty
I’ll confront my dreams and come out clean
